“Je remarque les émaux cloisonnés de M. Paul Louchet, ainsi que le cadre contenant des dessins d’Albert Louchet, son frère. Je n’insiste pas, ce n’est pas tout à fait de ma compétence ; on me dit d’ailleurs que ces jolis cloisonnés ont été exécutés au Japon même ; leur perfection s’explique alors plus facilement et aussi leur aspect un peu “porcelaine”, ce qui est une des caractéristiques des artistes modernes du Nippon.” Revue de la Bijouterie, Joaillerie et Orfèvrerie, n. 40, August 1903, page 96

Louis Vauxelles, Gil Blas, 17 November 1907
Il s'agit de deux personnages détachés du groupe “Mathô vaincu, Défilé de la Hâche ou Retour de Mathô à Carthage ou L'Eléphant d'Hamilcar” dont la maquette en plâtre de 1893, aujourd'hui détruite, figura au Salon des Artistes Français de 1894, n°3536, et pour laquelle l'artiste obtint une médaille de 3ème classe. La place de cette sculpture dans le groupe se situe à droite de la patte arrière droite de l'éléphant.
Une autre maquette en plâtre teinté, terre cuite, fil de fer et bois provenant de l'atelier du sculpteur dispersé à Lyon en 1972 a été reconstituée en 1930 par la fille de l'artiste et se trouve aujourd'hui au Victoria and Albert Museum de Londres
